Collisionless whistler heat-flux instability in ultra-high- plasmas
Rhisiart Davies, Prakriti Pal Choudhury, Archie F. A. Bott
The paper investigates how the whistler heat‑flux instability (WHFI) limits thermal transport in ultra‑high‑beta plasmas, showing that in this regime heat is carried mainly by adve…
On the generation of astrophysically-relevant intermittent magnetic turbulence in the laboratory
Itamar Cohen, Weipeng Yao, Archie F. A. Bott +18
Intermittent magnetic turbulence, namely the presence of non-ordered and clusterized fields, is a ubiquitous phenomenon in space and astrophysical plasmas. It is currently understo…
Efficient ion re-acceleration in laboratory-produced interpenetrating collisionless shocks
W. Yao, I. Cohen, P. Suarez Gerona +20
Although the origin of cosmic rays (CRs) remains an open question, collisionless magnetized shock waves are widely regarded as key sites for particle acceleration. Recent theories…
Latent thermal instability
Prakriti Pal Choudhury, Archie F. A. Bott
Multiscale temperature fluctuations are abundant in the intracluster medium (ICM) outside of galaxy cluster cores (). Their origin is often attributed to turbul…
Modeling transport in weakly collisional plasmas using thermodynamic forcing
Prakriti Pal Choudhury, Archie F. A. Bott
How momentum, energy, and magnetic fields are transported in the presence of macroscopic gradients is a fundamental question in plasma physics. Answering this question is especiall…
Saturation of the compression of two interacting magnetic flux tubes evidenced in the laboratory
A. Sladkov, C. Fegan, W. Yao +16
Interactions between magnetic fields advected by matter play a fundamental role in the Universe at a diverse range of scales. A crucial role these interactions play is in making tu…
